The front cover artwork is provided by the groups of Prof. Hiroshi Miyasaka (Osaka University, Japan), Prof. Masahiro Irie (Rikkyo University, Japan), Prof. Seiya Kobatake (Osaka City University, Japan) and Prof. Akira Sakamoto (Aoyama Gakuin University, Japan). The image shows the coherently vibrating closed form of a photochromic diarylethene derivative in the excited state, and subsequent structural evolution into the open form in the cycloreversion reaction.
